Currently I’m using Linux Mint but I’m having issues with my Nvidia graphics card.

Please don’t suggest Arch Linux. I’m looking for a stable, polished and easy-to-use distro. I have my eyes set on Pop!_OS for a while.

    Fedora has a Python spin that will get you all loaded out with an IDE and learning programs.

    Really doesn’t matter to be honest. Whichever distro you choose, you’ll be able to program somehow. Pop_Os! is a good bet for graphics cards issues though, so I’d say roll with it.

    A distro running a decent package manager like Nix (NixOS), pacman (Manjaro or Arch), or dnf (Fedora).

    While it all depends on what languages you’re writing, if you’re relying on packages in the distros repos, you’re going to appreciate having a robust package manager to handle the crazy dependencies various language’s toolchains will require, especially if you need different versions of packages for whatever reason.
